also it part 1 had an opend ending if it would be exclusive it wouldn't have been launched on the xb 360 in the first place.
Simply because I believe it is only a transitional medium, which needed 1-2 years of more development (didn't had the features of HD-DVD and slow reading speed).
But more likely to be replaced within a few years with for example The Holographic Versatile Disc (HVD) wihch has a transfer rate of 1 Gbit/s (125 MB/s)and a capacity of 3.9 terabytes.
What if it was the choise of eidos outweing possible gains and costs for launching the content on both consoles.
Whatever the case, don't think it will be a succes
Only console I might be worried about is the ps3 simply because the high costs of the console, simply because almost everybody in the world will be looking at cutting costs on christmas gifts (thanks to Bush).
if sega want to compete with handhelds they would need to come up with something more sleeker
But realisticly they could have fit it on the disk just whould have taken some time.
Just seems like another cleaver way of trying to sell more xbox live accounts.
Or just another case where developers had a set date before they have to go gold and decided not to reduce the number of maps but ad the finished maps with the help of live
Is it just me or is this the most ridicilious solution I have read in a while. using psn for a install, which would have been faster with the disk, just is stapid,whole bunch of other problems the solution will bring to bare. They might as well put a new bluy ray player with a higher reading speed.
Only solution to eliminate instals would be selling ps3 games on other faster loading media like sd cards or usb keys.
But looks very promising
Will hold saying how good it looks untill I see a better quality movie :)
Agree with you, I can imagin that the good levels will come in 1 month. I liked the looks of the warthog everything else in the level is not really impressive
the xb360 and ps3 are both capable of delvivering games with great graphics.
Graphical/hardware superiority means nothing, esspecially when the differences are hardly noticable.
This is something I realised afterI bought the ps3 for the graphics not necesairly the games just like I did with the original xbox and the the dreamcast.
It will take at least 6 months before Microoft will launch a slim version of the xb360. Which will most likely will be preceeded with a price cut for the (fatter version).
Also making the xbox360 slimmer, propably is an indication of a total internal redesign (no more rod problems), wonder where they will place the hard drive instead of on the top, since the currenth hd-drive avaible for xb360 wont' fit there.
Is the split screen option within the single player campaign moved to the co-op player campaign or just simply removed. From the entire game ???
Marketing wise there is nothing wrong with this commercial unless they where trying to sell rockband instead of more xbox360 consoles.
Microsoft is exactly doing what they said they where going to do. Reaching out to a broader market. Seems like they are trying to attract more female gamers with this commercial.
wasn't impressed of the game play shown at gametrailers, but the images look great
It is quite obvious that Microft has a better business model than sony.
They make more money on selling accesoires and xbox live.
Compared to the ps3 which doesn't need any accesoires. And therefore can't make extra money selling accesoires like Microsoft does.
Easy to see why Microsoft can make more money with their business model. Money is power so good for them.
Though does the main game got a story. Or is it solely about level building and playing those levels.
The state of the economy matters, this holiday season it is very likely most people will opt for the cheaper console.
Seems like the force unleashed choosed a good date too launch, not much competition of new games
lame article didn't even get the name wright xbox 360 core, meaning the arcade version I guess.
" 70% of new xbox 360 owners this holiday will adopt the "CORE""
where did he get that information the arcade or core xbox 360 never sold very well.
